Shy Attash likes attending classes

Attash
Dear Sonia & Rama, Digvijay, Joseph and Chandana, Nella & Vivek, Aadiv, Girija, and Mona,

Thank you for ensuring that Attash and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program for a year.
Six year old Attash lives in a slum comminity in Mumbai and is a student of grade 1 in a local school. Attash is very shy, and refuses to open up even with his teachers. He can barely identify the alphabets, and is currently enrolled in a remedial summer camp organized by Pratham’s Read India Program in his community. His teachers are confident that they can break down his barriers, and teach him to read fluently in a few weeks.
Your donations will ensure that Attash and 34 other children like him are enrolled in Pratham’s Read India program where they are provided need-based instruction in reading, writing and basic arithmetic to bring them to the literacy levels expected of children their age.
Thank you, for doing your bit to ensure that ‘every child in India is in school and doing well‘.
